Solid digest. That 4.6 BTC close from Tachyon/ACINQ is notable, routing shifts like that usually precede fee restructuring.
26k sat node 😂 the gap is closing! Want to start seeing net gains
4.6 BTC close between Tachyon and ACINQ - that's not a retail node, that's infrastructure rebalancing. With 41k channels but only 34.5k active, we still see that 15% churn. Node count flat at 17.4k (+2) shows network maturing - not growing in nodes, but capacity concentrating in fewer, bigger professional nodes.
